Oil sands operating costs
Full-year oil sands operating costs were $8.15/bbl, up 7% from $7.65/bbl in 2018 primarily due to lower volumes as a result of mandated curtailment. Per-barrel oil sands operating costs also “The costs associated with the operation of oil sands projects have fallen even more dramatically. Operating costs for both oil sands mining operations with an upgrader and steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) facilities fell by more than 40 per cent on average from 2014 to 2018. Cenovus has among the best assets in the in-situ oil sands industry with top-tier resources, industry-leading steam to oil ratios and low operating costs. The company’s oil sands facilities have a proven track record of consistently delivering safe and reliable operating performance, which will continue to be a focus in 2020. The cost of building and operating oil sands projects has fallen dramatically since the high-water mark of 2014, and the sector is ripe for growth if export constraints can be solved, a leading The following figure illustrates the possible paths for production under the three scenarios. For an oil sands producer, a project’s viability relies on many factors such as, but not limited to, the demandsupply relationship between production, operating and transportation costs (supply side) and the market price for blended bitumen and SCO (demand). Breakeven costs of US$40 — and falling — means it's too soon to count out the oilsands Oilsands have been synonymous with high costs for years. Total lifting costs also fell in each of the FRS regions, except Canada, where they rose $2.49 dollars, probably reflecting the inclusion of oil sands there in 2009. 16 The FRS regions with the largest decline in total lifting costs, the U.S. Offshore, the Middle East, and the Other Eastern Hemisphere, sustained declines of $3.83, $2.91, and $2

16 Oct 2019 Even among oil sands operations, there is massive disparity when one looks only at extraction, minus the impacts of shipping, refining and
The following figure illustrates the possible paths for production under the three scenarios.

Carbon is a proxy for energy use in projects, and operating costs from fuel consumption are spiraling. Oil and gas companies with carbon-intensive oil sands
9 Aug 2017 At $50, the Alberta oil sands seem primed to speed up. For instance, Suncor Energy reported in its Q2 financials an “operating cash cost” of 1 Apr 2018 The notion of oil sands being a high cost producer is a thing of the past, as we can now produce a barrel of oil with operating costs of $7.00 or 3 Aug 2018 These headwinds include high costs to produce oil sands and pressure on reported operating costs of $23.80/barrel for 2017.28 Teck has 17 Jan 2008 Estimated Operating and Supply Cost by Recovery Type . billion dollars for oil sands, with some projects already operating, and others still in. One changed the specification of the price of oil or natural gas that is used to that allowed for the inclusion of reserves of oil sands for the first time in 2009; Combining the effects of operating revenues and operating costs, worldwide
1 May 2019 The cost to construct a new oil sands plant has fallen 25 per cent to 33 per cent, while operating costs have fallen by as much as 40 per cent.
